Fowler ready to join Gerrard in race for Liverpool job but hopes Klopp ‘stays forever’

Liverpool legend Robbie Fowler is ready to battle fellow Reds great Steven Gerrard for the right to take charge at Anfield, but the former frontman admits he would like Jurgen Klopp to stay “forever”.

The current boss on Merseyside has extended his contract this season through to the summer of 2024 and change is unlikely before that point, with Klopp having overseen European and global triumphs while fast closing in on a first domestic league title in 30 years.

When the day comes for the German to move on, it has been suggested that the path will be cleared for former captain Gerrard to return to his roots.
